For the purposes of this page, I will be describing the degrees of the Oneiro scale using a system based on a system of seven nominals and one interordinal; this allows for the octave to land on the interval of equivalence, maintaining the octave complement relationships (e.g. m7 ~ M2, M3 ~ m6, etc.)
For the purposes of this page, I will be describing the degrees of the Oneiro scale using a system based on a system of seven nominals and one interordinal; this allows for the octave to land on the interval of equivalence, maintaining the octave complement relationships (e.g. m7 ~ M2, M3 ~ m6, etc.).  Each scale degree has a distinct formula, allowing a composer to find the exact size of any degree by only knowing the size of L and s.
